Sandy Ryza commented on YARN-392:
---------------------------------
Disable-node allows you to say "I specifically don't want a container on this
node". I can't speak to whether this is a useful feature, but it makes the
semantics consistent in the sense that the flag can simply mean "don't directly
use this ResourceRequest for an allocation". Thoughts?
If we allow Disable-node, I like disableAllocation as the name. Otherwise,
fallThrough or relaxLocality both seem good to me.
bq. The two checks seem to be different. One checks for containers > 0 while
the other does not. Dont know if that matters in the fair scheduler?
This is correct behavior, according to the way I was envisioning it. If we hit
a disableAllocation flag, we want to abort trying to allocate this
node/priority to the app entirely. On the other hand, if the node/rack has 0
requests, we want to fall through to the next level. I'll try to see if
there's a clearer way to structure the code.
bq. As discussed earlier in this jira, its not possible to mix strict and
non-strict allocations at the same priority. I dont see that being
checked/enforced anywhere.
I'll add that in. What should we do if the submitted ResourceRequests are
invalid?
Capacity scheduler changes are targeted for YARN-398.
